Dicerca alni (Fischer von Waldheim, 1824)

A long-term project, which was already initiated in the mid-eighties with the aim to compile as much as possible of the available data with reference to the study area. Therefore a comprehensive data-base has been established, based on information gathered from private and institutional collections, historical to recent literature, as well as own supplementary field work conducted in the course of numerous local collecting trips. All species will be depicted on distribution maps using the MTB-grid ("Messtischblatt") of the German ordnance survey map TK25 (1:25.000), together with photos of alive specimens, habitat and partly also host plants, feeding patterns or larval stages. The ongoing survey is eventually intended to be released as a printed publication.
